     Has anyone gotten this one yet ? I assume another fake since MS does not
     send out real patches. Part of the message reads;
     "Dear Customer.
     At 2 : 04 pst on Thursday-January 29, 2004,
     Microsoft launched investigating reports of a variant of a new worm named
     "Novarg", known as Mydoom.B. "
     It direct you to what sounds like a good address:
     www.microsoft.com/downloads/
     However if you look at the address in HTML it really is:
     http://www.microsoft.com%01%00@66.235.193.39/~cnnurgen/microsoft/downloads/details.html
     
     Haven't really figured this one out yet, but I sure will not be clicking the
     goto link !
